    At the end of the camp, African champion coach Herve Renard will name his provisional squad for the final Africa Cup preparatory camps.

    “This home camp is very important. It is the bedrock and foundation on which preparations for the Zambia National Soccer Team will be launched. The camp provides an excellent and unrivalled platform for local players and others to undergo the rigours of African championship training, thereby staking their claims for consideration in the Chipolopolo Nations Cup provisional squad,” read the statement.

    “Over and above the local camp, the programme of preparation for the finals, as stated consistently, is all set. We have lined up a number of games to help the technical staff make continuous assessment of the players’ readiness and overall team preparedness. As we proceed and make any adjustments, we shall inform our partners and stakeholders and the nation accordingly,” said Mwanza.

    “We have Tanzania on the 23rd of December, Morocco on the 8th of January 2013 and Norway on the 12th of January. We are also concluding other training matches which maybe against Namibia, Saudi Arabia as well as other teams. We’re applying the skills and experience of the success of the camps of 2010, 2012 and consistent highly professional work ethics which are important for our football.”

    “The match against Morocco will precede the naming of the final 23-man squad and submission of the same to CAF by Football House. Therefore, the game against Norway at Levy Mwanawasa will involve the final 23 who will compete at SA2013 for the defence of our African crown,” Mwanza said.

    “The President of the Football Association of Zambia, Executive Committee, Herve Renard and Technical Staff would like to express their gratitude to all fans and stakeholders for their continued support to the Association and team.

    When it comes to accessories, have you ever thought about wearing a glove-shaped coin purse necklace around your neck? Donning a turban to protect your head coach handbags outlet from the louis vuitton outlet online fall chill? Or hanging a cat sweater casually over your handbag? No? Me neither. But this week’s round of personal style bloggers made just these bold choices for coach outlet online their accessories, and they all look amazing!Caillianne worked a Maison Martin Margiela at H&M (launching next week on Nov. 15!) glove necklace and a vintage turban into a killer black-and-white ensemble that balanced chic on top with sporty on the bottom. The Beckerman clan can always be counted on for creative ways to accessorize.


    There are tons of animal sweaters these days that are super www.louisvuittonpursebag.com cute and not at all kitsch (though I personally enjoy kitschy sweaters), and Alyssa shows us a fun way of wearing one – without actually wearing it. Hanging a sweater over your handbag is a genius solution because then you can have two amazing tops on you rather than just one (this would be the opposite of ‘less is more’ but would achieve the same effect – a brilliant outfit)!As if the 60+ shots we posted yesterday of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2012-2013 edition weren’t titillating enough, here’s coach bags outlet a little something for coach outlet those of you who are more interested in footwear than in heavily-embellished bras and panties: Nicholas Kirkwood custom-designed each pair of shoes in the Coach Factory Online runway show. The London-based shoe designer’s signature platforms and sculpted heels adorned the feet of the likes of VS Angels Alessandra Ambrosia, Miranda Kerr and Adriana Lima when the show coach purses outlet taped earlier this week.


    Take a peek at the gallery below for a closer look at Kirkwood’s designs. Dying for a pair? All you needed was a pair of Angel wings to get your hands on one.At the H&M Spring 2013 preview this week, a bohemian style for coach outlet store online the 21st century translated into sporty and relaxed shapes embellished with tassels (one can never have too many), fringes, and embossed details.


    The fresh sun-bleached and coach outlet online neutral tones of the collection are highlighted in the gray denim jacket with quilted shoulders and Louis Vuitton Purses gorgeous brocade print blouse and matching shorts, while vibrant reds and oranges embolden the tassel skirt with embellished waist and the coach factory outlet online statement brocade jacket. There are so many great pieces in this spring collection, but the standouts for me are the black embossed leather jacket and the studded white denim vest. Can’t you just imagine these on the lead singer of a band who gets asked to play at fashion shows in New York or Paris?The accessories in the collection are just as stellar. I’m loving the tassel handbags, the metal toecap cowboy ankle boots, and the pineapple earrings. It is an undeniable fact that pineapples make better sartorial motifs than any other fruit (bananas are a close second). If you agree, you’ll be happy to know that there is also a cute bracelet with pineapple charms and a shirt with the fruit printed on it. Tassels, pineapples, brocade…it’s not even winter yet, but I’m ready for spring.
